Maybe it's me, but I don't see why so many people love this drink. To me, its just some kinda brown creamy liquid which tastes bitter and keeps you awake. So why, oh coffee lovers?

A great cup of coffee shouldn't be bitter--it should be rich and full-bodied (like dark chocolate). Most people (and even coffee shops) don't put enough ground beans in the machine for the number of cups they are making. If you make coffee with too little ground beans, the excess water will pull out all the acid--leaving you with a bitter cup.
If you want to try to figure out why coffee lovers love it so much, try brewing your own. Put 2 Tbsp of ground beans for every 6 oz. water. And make sure that you get good beans. I would recommend Community Coffee between roast blend (if available). Otherwise, an Italian roast is a good option.
Since you aren't a hard-core coffee drinking, add a bit of cream and sugar to start. If you like chocolate, you will probably like a properly made cup of java.

Coffee has a taste that appeals to the taste of some of us, I guess. I used to fill it chock full of cream and sugar but now I like it plain, I think it's an acquired taste. But the big reason people drink it is because nothing would get done with out it. I am much more productive and chatty with it, if I forget my caffiene nothing gets done, it's a habit. FYI, also there is caffiene withdrawal, people can get headaches if they are used to drinking it daily and stop.

Coffee to me is like nicotine is to smokers. I love the taste. Its like liquid crack going through me. I can drink a large iced dunkin donuts in under 5 minutes. Best taste ever. You can taste the caffeine. I love it so much I swish it around in my mouth. I salivate on the thought of a good cup of coffee.

There's nothing better than the aroma of freshly brewed coffee. It also helps me stay awake and alert and keeps me going. However, I do agree, that the caffeine in coffee does make it addictive. I get headaches if I skip my cup of coffee

It can be quite delicious, if you put enough other additives in it. If you want to know some more interesting coffee facts, check this out.

Cause coffee is tasty.. Just like life.. Sometimes it's bitter, sweet, or even sour.. Coffee tastes depend on your mood (for coffe lovers).. Beside, it's addictive

I do like the taste, in my opinion it just became a daily routine for most people.

Your right it is bitter. I can't stand the stuff.
I get my caffeine from iced tea and Mt. Dew.
